save my child ! save my child she kept on crying in tones of such anguish that they went to my father's very heart jive it to me he said and then j jump out into my arms the distance 1 is nothing â€” you cannot be hurt take courage now give me the baby she leaned forward and dropped the baby wrapped up in a shawl into my father's arms just as he got it safe it seemed to him that the roof fell in there was a crashing noise but uot very lond ; the flames disappeared and so did the young lady in at his window he rushed again and through the house shouting fire tire with all his might and with the baby still in his arms out rushed the landlord as pale as a ghost and his wile after him in such a monument of a night-cap that it quite overawed my father even in the midst of his agitation the maid was shrieking murder down in the kictli en and the apprentices had tumbled out from under the counter in the sliop and were poking their noses out and kindly inquiring who was killing her and on every landing up the stairs the lodgers were calling out to know t , wlia was the matter there was al together a terrific row in the place the next house is on fire !' said my father it's only the old story said the landlord linn up tails my dear and tell them it's a false alarm but it's not a false alarm says my father for 1 saw the flames and 1 saw the roof fall in and i fear that a lady is buried under the ruins why don't you come and help her she had just dropped her child into my arms when the roof fell the landlady then first set eyes on the bundle for her husband at that moment lighed a candle from the rush light which had very imperfectly il luminated the scene before a baby !' says she yes says ray father and i think l better leave it with you madam while i go and endeavor to rescue the mother the woman did not speak nor utter a sound but she just lifted up the shawl from the child's face and drop ped down like a lump of lead upon the moor instead of attending to her both my father and the landlord look ed inlo the shawl it contained the skeleton of an infant wrapped up in the rags of what had once been very costly garments my father felt very sick and the landlord staggered back against the wall and dropped the can dlestick out of his hand when the landlady fell she was a tall heavy woman ami gave the house a good shake the maid screamed murder jouder than ever and the lodgers call ed out yet more energetically to know uh:it was the matter that frighten ed the landlord back into his senses for lie thought if they came down and saw what my father had got it would frighten them all out of the house so he caught up the candle which luck ily was not extinguished by the full and pushed my father with his bun dle into the bed room then he call ed out that it was only the strange gentleman who had had the night mare and his wife had been frighten ed into a fainting fit 80 they all went giti in bl ing back to bed ami the men helped his wife into her room where my father stood trembling and shaking not having presence nf mind enough to put down the bundle and not even daring to look into it again the little skeleton was quietly bu ried the next day by an old sexton who asked no questions as he knew the landlord was a respectable house holder and so they all concluded that the ghost was satisfied and that that was the reason why she never appear ed again when my father examined the place closely by daylight he saw evident marks of lire about the window but he was assured these were the remains of i lire that had happened there a great many years before in short ' the whole affair of the apparation seemed to shroud some fearful myste ry which was perfectly inexplicable some veins after when he was in lon don again my father endeavored to ' find out the house in the hope of oh 1 tabling some clew to the mystery but ; he could find nothing but a mass of nuns the street and some others were just demolished to make way for that which is now regent street â€” n y daily new a horrible hoax i how a fireman became a resurrec tionist san francisco chronicle a foreman of one of the hook and ladder companies and the member of the old volunteer department has been made the vic-.im of a hoax which ex ceeds the bounds of complacency some times accorded to practical jokes he had often boasted that no one was ever able to victimize him ; he was too smart for them and never could be caught several of his acquaintenees desiring to test the accuracy of his boastings accordingly entered into a contrivance which met with complete ' success harry winfield lawrence turner and another man whose name can not â€¢ be learned approached john â€” as his â– christian name is â€” and unfolded to him a scheme by which the quartet could earn 100 for a few hour's work a body was to be abstracted from lone mountain and upon presentation at a certain doctor's office the men !

save my child ! save my child she kept on crying in tones of such anguish that they went to my father's very heart jive it to me he said and then j jump out into my arms the distance 1 is nothing â€” you cannot be hurt take courage now give me the baby she leaned forward and dropped the baby wrapped up in a shawl into my father's arms just as he got it safe it seemed to him that the roof fell in there was a crashing noise but uot very lond ; the flames disappeared and so did the young lady in at his window he rushed again and through the house shouting fire tire with all his might and with the baby still in his arms out rushed the landlord as pale as a ghost and his wile after him in such a monument of a night-cap that it quite overawed my father even in the midst of his agitation the maid was shrieking murder down in the kictli en and the apprentices had tumbled out from under the counter in the sliop and were poking their noses out and kindly inquiring who was killing her and on every landing up the stairs the lodgers were calling out to know t , wlia was the matter there was al together a terrific row in the place the next house is on fire !' said my father it's only the old story said the landlord linn up tails my dear and tell them it's a false alarm but it's not a false alarm says my father for 1 saw the flames and 1 saw the roof fall in and i fear that a lady is buried under the ruins why don't you come and help her she had just dropped her child into my arms when the roof fell the landlady then first set eyes on the bundle for her husband at that moment lighed a candle from the rush light which had very imperfectly il luminated the scene before a baby !' says she yes says ray father and i think l better leave it with you madam while i go and endeavor to rescue the mother the woman did not speak nor utter a sound but she just lifted up the shawl from the child's face and drop ped down like a lump of lead upon the moor instead of attending to her both my father and the landlord look ed inlo the shawl it contained the skeleton of an infant wrapped up in the rags of what had once been very costly garments my father felt very sick and the landlord staggered back against the wall and dropped the can dlestick out of his hand when the landlady fell she was a tall heavy woman ami gave the house a good shake the maid screamed murder jouder than ever and the lodgers call ed out yet more energetically to know uh:it was the matter that frighten ed the landlord back into his senses for lie thought if they came down and saw what my father had got it would frighten them all out of the house so he caught up the candle which luck ily was not extinguished by the full and pushed my father with his bun dle into the bed room then he call ed out that it was only the strange gentleman who had had the night mare and his wife had been frighten ed into a fainting fit 80 they all went giti in bl ing back to bed ami the men helped his wife into her room where my father stood trembling and shaking not having presence nf mind enough to put down the bundle and not even daring to look into it again the little skeleton was quietly bu ried the next day by an old sexton who asked no questions as he knew the landlord was a respectable house holder and so they all concluded that the ghost was satisfied and that that was the reason why she never appear ed again when my father examined the place closely by daylight he saw evident marks of lire about the window but he was assured these were the remains of i lire that had happened there a great many years before in short ' the whole affair of the apparation seemed to shroud some fearful myste ry which was perfectly inexplicable some veins after when he was in lon don again my father endeavored to ' find out the house in the hope of oh 1 tabling some clew to the mystery but ; he could find nothing but a mass of nuns the street and some others were just demolished to make way for that which is now regent street â€” n y daily new a horrible hoax i how a fireman became a resurrec tionist san francisco chronicle a foreman of one of the hook and ladder companies and the member of the old volunteer department has been made the vic-.im of a hoax which ex ceeds the bounds of complacency some times accorded to practical jokes he had often boasted that no one was ever able to victimize him ; he was too smart for them and never could be caught several of his acquaintenees desiring to test the accuracy of his boastings accordingly entered into a contrivance which met with complete ' success harry winfield lawrence turner and another man whose name can not â€¢ be learned approached john â€” as his â– christian name is â€” and unfolded to him a scheme by which the quartet could earn 100 for a few hour's work a body was to be abstracted from lone mountain and upon presentation at a certain doctor's office the men !
